Description:
Innovative Action-Legend Sammo Hung re-invents the action-horror genre with Encounters of the Spooky Kind, a hi-energy combination of Kung Fu, special effects and horror, which led to the creation of an entire sub-genre in the world of Hong Kong Filmmaking.

Generally recognized as one of the possible inspirations for Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead" series, Sammo's choreographic genius goes into overdrive with this project, as he demonstrates his unmatchable skill with weapons and in unarmed combat, showcasing scene after scene of incredible physical dexterity. The indescribable 20-minute fight finale, which rounds off the movie, is a perfect showcase for the unique spectacle that is Hong Kong Cinema!
